Homemade Crunchwrap Supreme

Edit: So I keep getting emails reminding me that I forgot the cheese sauce. I didn't forget it, I simply used shredded cheese instead because it's what I had on hand. I've edited the recipe though to include the nacho cheese sauce for those who prefer it.

So there are very few things that I love, like adore, when it comes to fast food places. In and Out Burgers are one even though I'll let you know that I'm kinda burned out on burgers right now and nothing seems appealing.

Then there's Taco Bell and while I do enjoy a good Chalupa the Crunchwraps are my downfall. Man oh man, I love those.

I just don't like having to leave my house when I feel like one, I also don't like spending the gas money, or waiting in the drive thru, or leaving the house to go get one....oh wait, I've said that already.

I always find that if I can replicate something I really enjoy, it not only saves me time and money but I can also see what is going in to it and I can make it lower fat or pile on the cheese if I so wish.

I was craving Crunchwraps the other day and hubby was at work and we only have the one vehicle, so going out was out of the question, so I sat here and thought about what all went into one of these and thought "it can't be that easy, I must be missing something?". Online I went and after a quick search I realized that I was right, there really is nothing special or out of this world to these...YAY!

So all that babbling just to show you how to make some crunchwraps at home. Ha!

Oh man...I've never thought of trying these at home. When I order them I always have them add Refried Beans and Extra Nacho Cheese. Maybe I'll try doing this some time since I'm trying to avoid fast food.

This sounds soooo good, can't wait to make it! Will definitely use plain greek yogurt instead of sour cream, it's GUILT FREE and SOOOO good! Maybe some refried beans too for a protein punch, or in lieu of meat for a veggie alternative...

I made a vegetarian version of these for lunch today by using refried beans and Mexican rice in place of the ground beef. Topped with salsa after frying. You gotta use the tortilla chips in there, love that crunch they add. These were great, filling and delicious! Thanks so much!
